Octoberfest: One of the Year's Biggest Celebrations

Sure it's all about the beer, food, music and friends (is that the right order?), but Campbell's big weekend starts on a healthy foot with a 5K run (so you can justify what comes next).

The 6th annual Oktoberfest 5K Fun Run starts at 9 a.m.  Runners and walkers will enjoy the flat course and fall foliage on the popular Los Gatos Creek Trail adjacent to historic Downtown Campbell. This family-friendly event is perfect for both runners and walkers. 

Registration is available Race Day between 8:00-8:45 a.m. Please note: Race Day Registration will not include T-shirt or goodie bag. 

Cost is $30 for Adults; $15 for ages 19 and under.

The rest of the next two days Downtown features savory German foods including Bratwurst, sauerkraut, pretzels and German potato salad, a variety of beers and ales, over 100 fine artisans from all over the country and an impressive line-up of entertainment, including headliners Alpiners USA.

Festival hours are 10 a.m.to 6 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Contact the Campbell Chamber for more information at (408) 378-6252.
